I have been reading the book Flow which has been a fantastic read. There is a story of Democritus a deep thinker sitting around the stone bath deep in thought. This guy actually sat around thinking for days at a time. They even brought in the famous Hippocrates, the doctor to see if he was psycho or sick. He was neither.
Our friend Democritus found great pleasure in meditating on the deeper realities of life and created his own reality of cause. I greatly appreciated his quote regarding cause and happiness. "Happiness does not reside in strength or money; it lies in rightness and many sidedness"; "I would rather discover one true cause than gain the kingdom of Persia." (Page 127 Flow)
